Photograph of a man seated on a red throne with gold carved armrest, wearing an orange saffron garment with gold trim, a long ornate gold necklace of beads, gold bangles and armlets, and white and red forehead markings. He holds up a silver bird-shaped vessel on a twisted silver stem and looks down at it, appearing to pour liquid from its beak. A second man in orange robes with a gold necklace sits to the left, partly visible, and gold ritual vessels sit in the foreground. A white canopy forms the background. Appearance cues (long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, ornate gold necklace and bangles, throne) are consistent with the page's claim, so this is a probable Swamiji depiction in person.
